Chapter 117: It's hard to keep a concubine
Concubine Yun is a good mother in the eyes of Fu Sen, in the emperor's place, she has been so pure and good all her life, pure like a little white rabbit, she can endure anyone who bullies her, and she will raise Fu Ji to adulthood, in addition to raising Fu Ji's temperament badly, none of the other three disasters and eight tribulations have been passed, this is called calculating to the bones, without cutting the flesh and skin, others can't see it, so Yun Guifei was able to climb all the way to the throne of the concubine as a female official.
But this woman is a complete villain to me and Fu Ji, and she is still a bad one.
Don't give Baili Guifei the posthumous seal, it's my idea to Fu Ji, Fu Sen wants to posthumously seal Fu Ji's biological mother Baili as the queen, but in private he doesn't think about his own mother, Yun Guifei was martyred at the beginning, Fu Ji orally uploaded the holy decree, and didn't say what to give a nickname, all the other concubines are not left behind, Hui Shude and virtuous are all accounted for, that is, there is no Yun Guifei's share.
So I see Concubine Cheng so annoying, maybe it's also because, Concubine Cheng and Concubine Yun are the same people, they both start to rot from the core, but Luo Zhiyi was seen by me, and Concubine Yun's acting skills are good, the emperor has never seen it in his life, and he still treats her as an existence like bright moonlight, she is really blind and incurable, and she just happens to be a pair with Concubine Yun.
There are really few palace people in Qianshou Palace, I thought that the whole palace was only served by Mama Zhong and two chamberlains, and the other palace people were just sparsely distributed in the corners, from this point it can be seen that the temper of the old queen mother is definitely not too good, and the people who are difficult to serve will always be difficult to serve, not to mention the bones in the eggs, that is, when they are down, they should pay attention to it at all, and it is about that other palace people are not serving well, so only Mama Zhong has a personal person to serve.
Chang Yun and I waited and waited, but I didn't see the old queen mother finish copying the scriptures, and the milk custard was resting on the other end, all of which had already condensed, and I knew that this was a clear demonstration, asking Chang Yun to do something for her.
I secretly scolded Qianshou Palace for being poor and sour, the milk custard was cooled, and no one changed another bowl to rely on, Changyun was quite calm, but I had already begun to show an impatient look, frowning, that Mama Zhong was really, from beginning to end a bowl of milk custard was presented, nothing else, the more I waited, the more anxious I became, but I have waited for so long, it seems that I can't say it if I don't see the true face of the old lady with my own eyes.
The smell of sandalwood is getting stronger and stronger, the smell is too rushing, but it makes people calm down, just when I thought that the queen mother was going to dry us at least one night, the curtain in the inner hall finally shook a few times, and the head of the bell was holding a woman in a gorgeous dress, and finally sat on the right seat, presumably this is the old queen mother that few people in the palace have seen.
Although Changyun and I had been mentally prepared for a long time, we couldn't help but be taken aback when we saw the Queen Mother.
I thought it should be an old woman, but I didn't expect the queen mother to look at her early forties, except for a scar that grew into the hairline at the left eyebrow bone of the face, you can vaguely see the style of the year, such a posture is rare in the Jing Palace, the queen mother must have been favored when she was young, the old queen mother is not as old as we imagined, but the palace robe on her body is a little dull, as if it has been washed down for many years, revealing an old and decaying taste, which has forcibly raised her age, but compared with the silver-haired Zhong Mama next to her, she is already very young。
I got up with Chang Yun and bowed to the Queen Mother together, Chang Yun was 'trained' by Gongsun Jiaao, for which she was caught by him in Hanliang Hall to eat tofu, and he had the opportunity to eat tofu in Hanliang Palace, and he can be said to know quite well about the etiquette and level of the country. ”
The old queen mother lived an indecent life in the palace, but she was also born in the north, and she was a general, the real proud daughter of the sky, her clothes fell second, and the person who had been thinking about the Buddha for a long time should have leaned on the side of the benevolent eyebrows, but the queen mother was different, that scar was too eye-catching, and the original benevolent eyebrows and good eyes were diluted, and even when she didn't speak, there was a kind of fierce momentum between the eyebrows and eyes.
The person who came was not good, and the old queen mother must not have thought of calling us over on a whim, especially to such a person who is not easy to talk to;
If things don't work well, you have to pay for yourself.
"Get up" Empress Dowager Wu looked at the pair of sisters below, a pair of eyes full of fine lines were shining, and Mama Zhong had always known the habits of her master, and when she saw that the Empress Dowager was going to talk to Concubine Jing alone, she retreated silently.
I helped Chang Yun up, and I also wanted to follow Mama Zhong to exit, but I didn't expect Empress Dowager Wu to glance at me, and only said "You also stay", and put me and Chang Yun together.
There is no way, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, the Empress Dowager Wu did not move Mrs. Yu, but she called Changyun and me, I was on the side of Changyun, thinking about the reason why the Queen Mother found Changyun, and I was particularly curious about the scar on her eyebrow bone, so I planned to take a sneak look...........
It's very unfortunate that this time I was arrested, I didn't expect that Empress Dowager Wu didn't look at Changyun, but her eyes were always staring at me, she saw that I was a little female official who actually looked at the master with her eyes, and she didn't get angry, just smiled coldly at me, and said, "Why, the face of the mourning family is so strange?"
The gloomy and sympathetic tone is clearly scaring people, I have already practiced the ability to look at people's eyes in Guanghan Palace, and I lowered my head and stepped forward to ask for guilt, Chang Yun also played a round on the side, and said: "Naturally, it's not because of the Queen Mother, but the palace people are not sensible, and the concubines are negligent in discipline. ”
"You must be thinking, good and decent, how could a secluded queen mother find herself, I'm afraid that the person who came is not good," Empress Dowager Wu said quietly.
As soon as these words came out, Chang Yun had to follow her words again, but said with a smile: "The concubine has been in the palace for a shallow day, but she also knows that the queen mother is dedicated to the Buddha and has the world in mind." Saying that, she knelt down again, and made a full face: "The concubine should come to the Queen Mother to fulfill her filial piety,"
"I learned the rules well, and I was quite good at talking........ Empress Dowager Wu nodded with satisfaction, and the string of eighteen green sandalwood beads in her hand had been rotating since the beginning of the party, and her voice was the same as that of her, like jade, and she said that it was cold.
When the old queen mother came up, she obviously knew our identity, no wonder, staying at home, listening to all directions, the emperor can do it, and the queen mother can naturally do it, I don't believe that she didn't cultivate her own cronies when she was in the country.
"Without grace, there is nothing in the palace" Empress Dowager Wu looked at the dark layout of Qianshou Palace, this lifeless palace, all of this was a shame for her, and she was reminded all the time how failed she was as the queen mother.
She obviously has a son, but she worked hard to support her adopted son to the throne, she didn't even care about the death of her own child, she planned for him step by step, planned for him, and relied on the emperor's favor for her, and single-handedly swayed the prince's candidate, but only got such a result.
"Our saint, the ability to unload the mill and kill the donkey is exactly the same as his father's emperor, he is the best in the middle" Day after day, Empress Dowager Wu is enduring such suffering, she is really exhausted, and she has to ask herself every day what she did it for.
Today, Xu has an outsider, and her catharsis can find an outlet, and her tone suddenly becomes anxious: "He wants to trap me in this Qianshou Palace, and wants to boil me to death, until the day when my heart is exhausted and the oil runs out........." She clutched the corner of the table fiercely: "The mourning family is not willing to obey his wishes!"
Chang Yun and I were each shocked, and I didn't know what I heard, but I just thought that maybe the Queen Mother didn't care about those honorific titles at all, from just now to now, she only used one time to refer to herself, it can be seen that she hated a lot, when she mentioned Gongsun Jiaao (and possibly Gongsun Di), the hatred seemed to have a concrete description, and it was painted with color, which was a blood-red color.
Empress Dowager Wu lost her temper, and in the blink of an eye, she cooled down again, she saw that I was similar to Chang Yunsheng, but each had its own brilliance, and said with emotion: "When I was young, I became the eldest lady as soon as I entered the palace, and my status was second only to the original queen. Her eyes kept going back and forth on me and Chang Yun, the scar on the eyebrow bone added a bit of anger, Empress Dowager Wu sneered, and laughed at herself: "In terms of appearance, I was better than you thousands at the beginning, and in terms of emperor luck, I was favored by no one back then." As she spoke, she looked at Chang Yun, and although the smile on the corner of her mouth was harsh, she was a little desolate that could not be hidden: "What about you? You have been fortunate by my 'good son' a few times, how he treated you, have you written these down, have you ever thought about them?"
This question is not right, it sounds like a woman is resentful, but she has eliminated her hatred, and there are some different feelings in it, Empress Dowager Wu also found that she was a little out of shape, and she was busy adjusting again, and went straight to the point: "The mourning family has been cold for a long time, since you entered the palace, this palace has not stopped, it can be seen that your ability." ”
I looked at the Empress Dowager Wu and suspected that this old woman was actually the same as me, she was passively indulged in the past, I just started, but she has been addicted to it for so many years, and it really responded to what she just said, "Everything was good at the beginning, but now it has fallen to such a point."
Speaking of which, it's all fate............
"Ethereal things, even if they are grasped in the palm of their hands, there will always be a day when they will dissipate" Lu Changyun was not frightened by Empress Dowager Wu's series of words, on the contrary, she was still able to deal with it calmly, and even replied naturally: "What ability does a concubine have, it is the favor of the saint to treat the concubine, and it is just a fake job." She said slowly: "I'm afraid that like Mrs. Yu, I can't escape this layer, and what the saint values is just to see what you use today, and tomorrow there will be other things to fill in the hole with you, so I don't skimp on a good face." ”
Empress Dowager Wu didn't expect her to say such a thing, and only then did she look up to her, and nodded approvingly: "It's an understanding person." ”
